Huu-ay-aht is launching a new Healthy Home Initiative which is part of Recommendation two from the Assess Existing Anacla Housing Stock in the final report of the Independent Housing Panel. This initiative aims to reduce the cost of living for citizens by identifying and implementing energy efficiency measures, increase self-sufficiency by generating energy for the community, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and co-create an energy vision and actionable plan reflecting desires and needs of Huu-ay-aht citizens.
Huu-ay-aht is currently undertaking community research to understand the significance of the Old Village Site, Kiix̣in, historically and in the present context as perceived by the community, to develop a collective vision for the future growth potential of Kiix̣in and its surrounding areas. This project is funded by the First Peoples’ Cultural Council’s (FPCC), Sense of Place Grant.
We would like to hear from the community and understand the significance of the Village Site in the present context and the cultural relationships of Huu-ay-aht people to the Village Site. This will be explored in the first half of the session. The second half of the session will examine the potential for the Kiix̣in Village Site and the neighbouring areas for future growth and examine what that growth looks like.
